The time has come for us to celebrate
With all we are we can not hesitate
to raise the ruined earth through the air up to the sky
lay down your swords and wait for rain
The time has come for us to celebrate
With all we are we can not hesitate
to love always and to appreciate
the light, the darkness and the sun
The time has come for us to celebrate
With all we are we can not hesitate

Awake
06:02
|

Awake, awake
The empty climbed upon the hillside and filled their mouths with water, from the creeks of others, until it dried away.
The empire stacked their stones and iron upon the grass the trees bent, broke from the pressure, then couldn't grow at all.
And we said,
"Hey, we're all standing in the same sunlight"
Will we draw our lines upon the earth, and trace the shadows of our shade
seeking power and Dominion, if turned around then we would see
That we're all standing in the same sunlight
where we cannot see each other as divided
we're all standing in the same sunlight
and we'll Listen, Listen, Listen
Listen the grass it moves, up through the cracks it grows
Listen the rain will fall
Listen the creeks will swell
and we'll Listen, Listen, Listen

When the Waters Rise
03:04

How's it gonna be when the waters rise?
Driftwood ocean that never dries.
How's it gonna be when they rise?
The waves keep crashing and you take your time.
How's it gonna be when they rise?
Are you gonna stand out in the tide and watch it wash over your life?
How's it gonna be when the waters rise?
wade on home.
wade on home.

Forest in the Kiln
02:36

|

Don't say sorry, don't say sorry for your loss
Don't say sorry, for what have I really lost?
Are we strangers in this land?
Passing like the setting sun, and when the dark sets in
our fire will rise again
So don't say sorry, don't say sorry for your loss
It's like waking up to find you're not alone
As the people reconcile their buried wrongs
Its alarming how the mirror clears as visions clash
and reflects back what I knew, that really I am you
You say om nama shivia, like you were in transition
So when your crying for that change
recognize that we are forest in the kiln
and the water can be lost
how the poison often spills, when the mountains turn to dust.

The Loon
04:21
|
|

The Loon, sits lightly on a still lake
The sky, reflects constellations on the loon's back
and the cedar stretches to the light
Wind on the tips of the branches tremble in the night
The most common life is full of beautiful things
Just open your eyes and you will see it
Peace is within you, it never leaves.
Just open your mind and you will find it.

Fear Not Creation
02:58
|
|

Fear not creation
Breath into action, cast a reflection, not just direction
Are you hiding your tunnels like a head in the sand.
Echoing through cambers of constant sound
still the reverberation has space between
until you become the silence itself, your own true self.

Honeysuckle, Bittersweet
04:11
|
|
||
Your heart is overgrown
bound to the greed
its braided up the spine
honeysuckle, bittersweet
Climbing up, pulling down
Remediate your mind
It's dark beneath
turn up the soil now
let it breath
Tunnel down, pull it up
Climbing up, pulling down
Pressed down the crop splits from the ground with wind now echoing
The trampled and the weary ones shall then be released
To think that they had buried us forgetting we are seeds
cracked through the light has taken root, rising to find relief

The Loon (reprise)

The most common life is full of beautiful things
Just open your eyes and you will see it
Peace is within you, it never leaves.
Just open your mind and you will find it.

Ballad of the Coydogs

Coydog den
coydog den
How do you stay warm?
Followed hallow paw prints through the snow and through the mud
Took me to your shelter of metal to rust
You've been hiding in the shadows, stomping ivy into trails of string
When you howl, do you howl to stay calm?
How do you stay warm?

Those Who Persecute

Pray for those who persecute
Show me how to use my voice
Show me how to use my power
